Tools for Television Pro
One thing that might not be very apparent to new editors is that Adobe Photoshop's capabilities go so far beyond just retouching stills that many pros keep it a button-click away on their workstation during editing sessions. (Check out Richard Harrington's very useful site www.photoshopforvideo.com for some good examples of how it can be used.) Tools for Television Pro, software created by production facility Pixel Post Studios, brings added chops to Photoshop that offer video-specific functions — including Title Builder, Frame Grabber, and photo-to-video converter. Other features allow you to create safe grids to protect station bugs or automatically generate intelligent alpha channels.
